Sure, I can do that. Though to be fair, I recall Fei sending out
tracepoint data earlier that didn't get a response.

So attached is trace/regdump data for db845c both in the failure case
and with the patch ("Correct the logic for finding last SG entry").

I'll collect HiKey960 data here after lunch when I can swap over to
that board and will send it along soon.

Thanks so much for taking a look at this!
